Maybe this is a stock split and the shares double but not at the same price.... it's not clear-- but still, a split is attractive. Tesla had a pending split and everyone was jumping on it.
The wording doesn't sound to me like a simple split; splits are of virtually no monetary value, other than it allows some people who couldn't afford even 1 share to buy one. This sounds like an award of some sort. But it's all speculative based on future results.
That's what I was thinking- thanks for the input. If it does mean that, this is likely an unprecedented move... but also extremely strategic, and probably planned well in advance.
TL;DR, these earnout shares are for the shareholders of TMTG, pre-merger. Those would be the people putting up the initial stake and the execs getting this thing off the ground.
There are targets to hit relating to the stock price, and are payable after 3 years... it's an incentive to drive the company's value, not a freebie to us acolytes.

Warrants are typically short term plays by nature as they are derivative of the option chain with expiration dates. Options lose money each day they are out, and the rate of decline accelerates as you near expiration. Be sure to read up on them before investing. DWAC is a common stock and traditional to what most people can hold long term. I don't believe DWACW (warrants) offer as many benefits as common stock ie. splits, dividends, or this DRS talk of directly registering your shares directly.

Deleting is the opposite of what should be done. If you don't leave these things up then the information (which is IMPORTANT information) is lost. There is NOTHING WRONG with being wrong. You posted something confusing but relevant, someone helped correct it and that information was made available to everyone.
And then you deleted it.
Learning the art of finding the truth (debate) is something everyone needs to learn. It is a lost art due to the Matrix that we live in. Self censoring (deleting) wrong information is the worst thing you can do. Admitting an error and correcting it is the best. Adding the information as an edit in the OP would have made the situation clear to everyone, thus increasing the understanding of all for something confusing, and promoting truth in a world full of disinformation.
Never delete something wrong. Just correct it and keep the information flowing. Keep the debate alive. This is the path to truth.
Can someone translate for me lol. I’m not a stock person at all but did by 1k worth of shares when they were $45 a share. Is this a good thing for someone in my position?
Yes- If I am interpreting it correctly, there are currently about 20-30 million shares; and when the merger happens he is promising we all will get 40 million shares- meaning our number of shares will double. Everyone on the planet wants to double their money so the stock is likely about to skyrocket, because when the deal goes through everyone's holding value doubles! I hope I am interpreting this correctly. This man truly is a genius. Yes, I said it again.

I don't think most platforms have a minimum quantity of shares. I buy on Webull because you can trade premarket at 4am and it's easy to use. The stock closed just under $56 per share tonight. Edit: spelling
It's easy to make money and lose money in the stock market- so that's a very personal decision. I am not 100% sure I understand the meaning of this article, which is why I asked for others' opinions... so I will be watching replies. A lot of experienced traders took a bloodbath in this stock today and yesterday... while many made a small fortune last Thursday and Friday. If you are interested in trying it out I'd encourage you to do some studying. I watched different free youtube videos.... but they can be actually harder to piece together a plan from than a book. I bought the book, "A Beginners Guide to Daytrading" at Barnes and Noble and took a lot of notes (though it is somewhat outdated as the lady wrote it like 20 years ago, it still covers good basics). I used this guy's tutorial to help me set up my Webull platform: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M13o-RtCoG8. I realize not everyone can get into that and just want to buy and wait. i have no idea what this stock will do, but I personally want they company to succeed, and I think a LOT of other people do too. That makes me not objective, and solid trading requires objectivity. That said, at the end of the day, the markets are trading emotion. lol I probably didn't answer your question. I got into trading a year or two ago and it has been a good experience overall, but you get punched in the face a lot too. Just keeping it real. :)
I don't know why I didn't think of this. My cousins use to be a tradesr. I will ask him. Both of them taught their young sons. He has always and still does well.

I have used both of those and don't like either because of ethical reasons.... which I won't get into or I'd end up writing a book. Being able to trade the second the market opens at 4 am has given me an advantage several times.
Did WeBull shut off the buy button in January? Do they receive PFOF? Many of the brokers you think are “good” are preparing to be royally fucked when GME goes boom and the fact they never bought the shares you purchased comes out.
Any broker that limited trading in January is fucked. Do your research and plan accordingly.
I am behind on knowledge about the whole GME saga- I only saw what Robinhood did to users, which is why I won't use them anymore. I didn't realize Webull did something similar. Are you aware of any other platform that allows trading at 4am? That's important to me.
Fidelity will but I believe it isn’t the default setting. It seems like they are setting themselves up to be one of the few left standing as evidenced by their quick turn around on DRS shares and recent announcement to allow routing of trades through IEX (lit market instead of dark pools).
Run away now. Not financial advice, but if they weren’t liquid enough to withstand the sneeze in January what will happen once they deal with MOASS and shares they never purchased? Crooked fucks.

Money you've worked your ass off for keeping the wheels of this country turning for the better part of your life? The savings you watched dwindle down to nothing under one administration and then recover under the last? If you did you wouldn't make such ignorant comments about people hopeful to see their stock investments rise.

Does this go for Warrants as well?
Warrants are typically short term plays by nature as they are derivative of the option chain with expiration dates. Options lose money each day they are out, and the rate of decline accelerates as you near expiration. Be sure to read up on them before investing. DWAC is a common stock and traditional to what most people can hold long term. I don't believe DWACW (warrants) offer as many benefits as common stock ie. splits, dividends, or this DRS talk of directly registering your shares directly.

I don't think most platforms have a minimum quantity of shares. I buy on Webull because you can trade premarket at 4am and it's easy to use. The stock closed just under $56 per share tonight. Edit: spelling
Is it worth only buying 5 shares if that is all you can?
Yes.
Do you mind saying how much you have made? Did you get it when it was real cheap?

I switched to WeBull during that. I thought the reason was because they didn't. I could be wrong in my recollection though.
